Question
I’m not sure which answer would explain the problem can you please help?
A scientist is comparing a forest five years after a fire compared to a forest that had not burned for 20 years. In the recently burned forest there are three dominant species, each represented by a letter, (A = 70% of the community, B = 22% of the community; C = 8% of the community). In the forest that had burned 20 years ago, there are also 3 species (C = 40% of the community, D 30% of the community, E = 30%of the community). Based on these differences you would %3D infer that: O The recently burned forest has a higher alpha diversity than the 20-year-old forest and they both have a higher beta diversity. O both forests have the same richness, but the 20-year-old forest has higher Shannon diversity index. O The alpha diversity between plots is greater than the beta diversity. None of the others are correct O both forests have the same richness but the recently burned forest has higher Shannon diversity index.
